As I hoped, the Arduino Due is opening a bunch of ARM based boards. DigiX at $59 isn't bad compared to Due, but there is also Taijiuino [www.elechouse.com] which is $36. It would have been great if the Due had onboard Ethernet, the Taiji has ethernet on an adaptor but prevents shields being plugged in.
The new ARM SOCs coming out of China are pretty amazing, driving the cost down and features up. There will be a 1GHz board for $40 soon, if not already. Unfortunately for various reasons it takes the software a while catch up.
